Dog-friendly beaches
on the Oregon Coast
W
e know that dog romps are an essential part of
dogdom (and peopledom, for that matter) in
Oregon. And our 362 miles of shoreline and beaches are
a magnet for happy dogs and their people. Dogs are
welcome at (almost) all tinies and places on Oregon's
beaches. But please keep in mind that all dogs, even
well-behaved ones, can be a threat to birds and wild
life. Some beaches are part of protected nesting grounds
of the western snowy plover. During its nesting season
(March 15-September 15) certain recreation activities are
restricted or prohibited.
No matter where or when you're on a beach, please
remember that it is a resting place, a feeding place, and
a nursery for mammals and shorebirds.
Please see the map (reverse) and pick out a
dog-friendly area for you and your canine BFF.

Beach Behavior We Love
• Walk around birds instead of through their flocks
• Leash your dogs before they chase birds
• Respect restricted areas set aside for endangered or nesting species
• Stay away from birds and marine mammals that look sick or unable to
get away from humans.
• Always clean up after your dog
• Always keep your dog on a leash or under voice control
